99 yr old Marietta makes tagliatelle with vegetable sauce | Pasta Grannies

99 year old Marietta is still going strong - we first met her in Calabria 18 months ago - and we caught up with her in Rome. This is one of her regular pasta dishes which everyone can adapt and make their own. Stew onion, carrot and celery before adding about 500g of greens like chard, cabbage, dandelion, kale and so on. Add a fresh red chilli if you like.  Pour over some tomato passata, season with salt and leave to simmer for 20 minutes.
For her pasta, Marietta uses semola rimacinata/durum wheat flour and water. Allow 300g flour, and 145g of water with a pinch of salt.
